Bloodied from the Battle

Here is how I am progressing with my weapon.






Not 100% pleased with the end product but.... it is war, and war is not pretty.

I will likely make myself a knee sock version so I have to remember to jot down some notes on areas I would like to change.

I am feeling like I have won another battle altogether. For some reason unknown to man (or woman), our computer suddenly became incapable of sound yesterday. I didn't realize it was a larger problem than my favourite game being muted UNTIL another blogger piqued a desire to hear Depeche Mode. Like now.

Not only would DM not play, I couldn't open any sound files and when I tried to access our audio software I was informed we didn't have any. At all. I had just assumed my sister had muted the audio. Wrong.

So after some frustrating troubleshooting instructions that were fruitless and waiting out some downloads and updates, I rebooted and lo and behold. That dragon was slain.

Fittingly Nothing's Impossible is playing as I write this!

THIS JUST IN: This was my 100th POST!!

My blog is growing up, sniff, sniff, grin!

I have no idea why Windows XP does this, but it's recent, and I think it's from a Windows Update. My PC(s) have both started doing this recently, and rather regularly. While the reboot fixes it temporarily, I haven't found a permanent fix yet.

The concert on the big screen was so fun. They could have cranked up the sound, though, especially at Martin's "rest" in the middle. DM is better at full blast! ;)
